The photograph depicts a single, worn film projector casting a warm, golden light onto a wall in what appears to be an abandoned greenhouse. The greenhouse is overgrown with lush greenery – vines cascade down rusted metal frames, and vibrant flowers bloom amongst the decaying glass panels. The walls are partially covered in faded wallpaper depicting scenes of vintage birthday celebrations; snippets of handwritten notes and doodles are visible beneath the peeling paper. The projection itself is fragmented - it’s not a clear image but rather a series of fleeting glimpses: a half-eaten plate of vibrant, colorful food (a painterly arrangement of fruit, pastries, and what looks like a small birthday cake), then fragments of smiling faces – ‘guys’ – appearing and disappearing. A single, perfect rose lies on the projector’s base, bathed in the golden light. The mood is melancholic but hopeful. The space feels suspended in time - a memory being relived. Dust motes dance in the beams of light, adding to the ethereal quality. A faint, handwritten note taped near the projector reads: 'We Are Here Film'. The overall feeling is one of realizing something profound about love and life; acknowledging an ending while celebrating a past birthday and embracing the present – ‘today’. The composition draws the eye towards the projected images, suggesting that these fragmented moments hold the key to understanding the story. There's a sense of 'good' and 'amazing' despite the decay, a feeling of finding beauty in imperfection.
